The important things have already been mentioned in separate responses above. I'll summarize here:
Do not use sand/powder it will clog up from the moisture injected into the tire when compressed air is used to top of the tires. It will also clog up the valve stem to which your TPMS sensors are attached and render them useless.
When using the beads (Dynabeads or other brands) they provide a special valve to replace the valve in the valve stems if you use the smaller beads. If you use the larger beads the standard valve does not need to be replaced. As a result your TPMS sensors will work just fine. Your tire sizes will determine if you need the smaller or larger beads.
I have the Dynabeads in all my tires, both the dually truck and RV and the spares, a total of 12 tires. In addition I have the TST TPMS system sensors on all tires including the spares. I have not had any issues and tires are wearing well, no odd wear spots or vibration. I have the larger beads so did not need to change out the valves in the stems.
Been using the beads now for two years and all is well.
